1994 Guns N Roses Cabinet Restoration

This Data East Guns N Roses was in for service last Winter. It needed a full shop out plus a power supply and flipper rebuild. It was recently brought back for a cabinet restoration.

Decals are from Phoenix Arcade. They make the best decals out there. The legs, rails, lock down bar, head brackets, and shooter housing were powder coated gloss black. Black is the most difficult cabinet color to restore because it shows any imperfections. The original cabinet had lots of scratches from a vandal and a key scraped up and down most of it. So needless to say, it needed special attention.

It was pleasure to bring this game back to life. Look at it now. Beautiful!

Novus 2 polished rose.

Every cabinet bolt painted with gloss black enamel.

These were new leg bolts, but came in flat black. They were repainted with gloss black enamel.
